He Hua Temple, Buddhist temple in Chinatown, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

He Hua Temple spans four levels, featuring a dining hall in the basement, worship rooms on the ground floor, and halls containing Buddhist statues.

The construction of He Hua Temple began in the mid-1990s following discussions about revitalizing Amsterdam's Chinatown, with completion achieved in September 2000.

The temple integrates Chinese architectural elements with Dutch building techniques, notably using yellow glazed Romanesque tiles produced by local manufacturers.

The temple welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Saturday between 13:00 and 15:30, with free admission at Zeedijk 106-118 near Nieuwmarkt Square.

Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands attended the opening ceremony in 2000, marking the temple's status as Europe's largest Buddhist complex in Chinese palace style.
